"Memorial" is the first Moonspell album I've heard. I'm really liking it. The vocals are a little hard to discern without reading the lyrics at the same time though. Are the past Moonspell albums the same quality? Oh and I'm still new at the genre and sub-genre thing, so what genre does Moonspell fall into?

Look, I'm new to these forums, give me a fucking break. I'm just trying to start a conversation. Hell, half the posts on the front page could be moved to one "sticky" thread or the other.

Metal-archives categorizes them as "Folk Black (early) / Gothic Metal (now)"

Sweet, thanks unknown I didn't even know about the metal archives. Wow I don't think I would have guessed they were "Folk Black Metal" in the early days

IIRC from "back in the day", Moonspell were pretty dismal goth-metal sung by Portugese blokes moping about in lace.

for a long time moonspell were not anything like "memorial" (i.e. the extreme vocals & heaviness has only come back with this new album, before that they were "gothic metal" with clean vocals and whatnot)
the albums you should get are basically "wolfheart" and/or "irreligious" and "under the moonspell" ep if you can find it (this is their only black metal release)

good moonspell has nothing to do with this type of music. "memorial", if you've heard it, has nothing to do with theatre of tragedy and their ilk (terrible, awful genre and band)ivry91 said:

oh yeah and if you like the extreme metal side of moonspell and want more you should get the DAEMONARCH album, it's basically the members of moonspell doing a black metal side project thing

Metal Archives allows you to browse bands by sub-genre, and they have almost every metal band in existence on there.
I plan on seeing Moonspell with Katatonia and Daylight Dies in October. I don't own any of their albums, but what I've heard I've liked. I'll have to pick up a few albums before going to see them.

Moonspell is my 6th favorite band. Amazing music. One of the most popular bands in Portugal for a very good reason. Why can't there be more gothic metal bands like Moonspell out there. It'll be a pretty good idea seeing the success this band has had.
Ps: Firewalking is a freakin masterpiece.

the album is kinda gay/cheesy at times but "alma mater" makes up for it about seventysixfoldJean-Pierre said:
